Creo 1.0 released! First wave of Creo apps available!

As promised, way back around October 28^th, PTC’s suite of design software is released! We now make available Creo 1.0 and its first 9 apps:

• Creo Parametric is the app for parametric modeling (as you might guess). All the capabilities of Creo Elements/Pro aka Pro/ENGINEER.
• Creo Direct is a standalone app for expert and non-expert CAD engineers who want to interact directly with the geometry.
• Creo Simulate is the analyst app. Use it for structural and thermal simulation.
• Creo Layout is the app for anybody who wants to flesh out early concept layout work in 2D, with the intention of ultimately evolving the design to 3D.
• Creo Schematics is the app for creating 2D routed systems diagrams, like cabling and piping.
• Creo Illustrate is an app full of tools for those who need to communicate complex service information concepts graphically in 3D.
• Creo View MCAD is a lighter weight app for those who want to view, interrogate, and mark up MCAD geometry.
• Creo View ECAD is another light-weight app. But for ECAD geometry.
• Creo Sketch is everything you need to quickly freehand a design idea in 2D.
